That entire day, Quily couldn't stop thinking about the letter.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcdrLZcdV0
"Who is Aaris?" she kept asking herself. The name echoed in her mind over and over again. She remembered every word written in the letter, especially the beautiful poem. That night, sleep refused to come. She lay awake, wondering who the mysterious person behind the letters could be.

The next morning, Quily followed her usual routine. She finished all the household chores and helped her grandmother with the work around the house. As always, she then visited the library, spent hours reading books, and returned home in the evening.

Later that day, her grandmother asked her to fetch water from the old well.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDbVT94Lku
Quily walked towards the well with the water pot. But as soon as she reached the place, she froze in surprise.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwidHb7JNMk
There, resting near the well, was another letter... along with a few fresh sunflowers.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRgzISZa3L
Curious, she slowly picked up the envelope and opened it.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTplR8Ybpz9
Inside was another poem.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhImGVg5iOP
«Just as flowers bloom with every dawn,
My heart blossoms whenever I think of you.
Not because I wish to claim you,
But because I hope one day, your heart will choose me...»
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqrIHHEN2x
Her heart skipped a beat.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QhfchrV15
At the bottom of the letter, just like before, were the words:
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgslJTbTMn
— Your Beloved, Aaris
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpog5qv5wIT
Quily was stunned.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JrPoJcach
"Who could be doing this?" she whispered to herself.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrhdfAazgs
Lost in thought, she took the letter with her and unknowingly walked back home without collecting the water.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlSMSqwvMZ
Her grandmother immediately noticed.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiWdeAgRjk
"Quily, what happened? I asked you to bring water. Why did you come back empty-handed?" she asked.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVB2LQ0N3t
Only then did Quily realize she had completely forgotten about the water.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmLlfcPmnE
Embarrassed, she hurried back to the well.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTZK5Fnu5R
As she reached the place again, something unusual caught her attention.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTyY2l8Urg
A few delicate rose petals were scattered near the well.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6CgrnFpFf
She was certain they hadn't been there before.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWvJbJiYrh
She quietly observed them for a moment, wondering who had left them behind. Then she filled the water pot and returned home, carrying both the water and the mystery in her heart.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQwXu9L2xm
The next day, as usual, Quily went to the well to fetch water.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJ2VkNIE3t
To her surprise, another letter and a fresh bunch of sunflowers were waiting for her.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjT9T86xj7
A smile slowly appeared on her face as she picked up the letter and unfolded it.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETfUyPR9eO
Inside, she read:
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFpyicOzv3
«The moment I first saw you,
Time itself seemed to stand still.
Since then, in every dream I have,
Your face has become my sunrise.»
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJe6xme7tO
At the bottom, the familiar signature appeared once again:
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UPQmaSeUB
— Your Beloved, Aaris
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡff5qSWkZBF
This time, instead of being frightened or confused, Quily couldn't help but smile.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfWbkYVPQW
A soft blush spread across her cheeks.
9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAy0mtGzfH
Holding the letter close to her heart, she quietly collected the water and walked back home, unable to stop thinking about the mysterious stranger named Aaris.9Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV38FyQpHUg
